Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = k*x This is the formula for a direct variation.

y = 20
x = 4 Substitute these values into the direct variation

20 = 4 * k Divide by 4

20/4 = 4k/4

k = 5

Answer: the constant of variation is 5

ABCD is a parallelogram. Find the measure of angle ABC.

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

∠ABC = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a parallelogram, opposite angles are congruent.

Therefore, ∠D ≅ ∠B

∠D = 38° + 12°

∠B = 38° + 12°

∠B = 50°

∠ABC = 50°
